er use of the machine. Learn to stop the
machine and disengage the controls

Never allow children or people unfamil-
iar with these instructions to use the

the age of the operator.
The appliance can be use by children

pliance and understand all hazards
linked to its operation. Children must

cleaning and maintenance operations
must not be performed by children ex-
cept under adequate supervision.

PREPARATION
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the ma-
chine is to be used and remove all doormats,
sleds, boards, branches, wires and any other
foreign objects.
• Disengage all clutches and shift into neutral
before starting the engine.
• It is advisable to wear suitable winter clothing
when using the machine. Wear resistant, non-
slip footwear that will improve footing on slip-
pery surfaces. Protect eyes with face shield or
safety glasses.
Adjust the height of the auger housing mak-
ing sure it remains above gravel surfaces.
Before each use, check the power cable
and extension flex for damage and any
signs of deterioration and/or aging. Take
the plug out of the socket immediately if
the cable or extensions flex get damaged
during use. DO NOT TOUCH THE CABLE
BEFORE UNPLUGGING IT. Never use the
machine if the power cable or extension flex
is worn or damaged. A damaged or worn
cable may lead to inadvertent contact with
live parts.
Make sure that the mains voltage matches
the snow thrower's rated voltage.
Before use thoroughly check the efficien-
cy of the machine, in particular make sure
there are no worn or damaged components.
Replace worn/damaged parts if necessary.
Never attempt to make any adjustments
while the engine is running (except when
specifically recommended by the manufac-
turer).
Before starting to remove snow, allow the
engine and machine to adapt to the outdoor
temperature.
Always wear safety glasses or a face shield
during operation or while performing main-
tenance or repairs to protect eyes from ob-
jects that may be thrown from the machine.
